Four days later
” Linda’s POV”
Today is Friday in the “Shinning Stars Academy” and it’s known to be the sports day. Everyone will be in their sport wears. I am in the yellow house because that’s the colour of my sports wears. Marcello told me that Fridays are usually the most interesting days in the shining stars academy. He told me it’s a day filled with lots of sporty activities so much that I would always look forward to it.
Marcello and I have become quite close. He is a very cool dude. Talking about Marcello, I look forward to seeing him. I took a likening in him since the very day I saw him. My eyes was automatically locked into his eyes that day and I couldn’t fathom that feelings. It was that magical. I had never felt attracted to a guy like that.
It felt as if I had known him for ages. I kinda felt drawn to him. I picked up my sport wears and wore it. The shorts fitted me perfectly. I am in yellow house but I don’t know if Marcello is in yellow house too. I am enthusiastic about today. I quickly got prepared and grabbed my school bag then I walked out of my room.
” Good morning mom”
” morning princess, go have your breakfast” she said.
I wanted to decline, I do not know the reason why though but on a second thought I just went straight to the dining to have breakfast. It was four slices of bread with fried egg and a cup of hot tea.
I ate quickly and cleared my dishes.
” Mom, I wanna leave for school”
” Okay darling. Bye and my regards to your friends if you have any” mom said.
” Oh mom.. yes I do. They are guys though, they go by the name Marcello and Henry. They are my only two wonderful friends ” I announced happily.
” Wow, seems you are getting used to your school” mom commended.
” Yes mom” I nodded in approval.
” And your sport wears also looks good on you ” she complimented.
” Thanks mum, bye, I will be leaving now” I said my farewell.
” Okay ,take good care of yourself in school and I hope you do have enough cash for lunch?” She said concerned.
” Yes, I have enough mom. Bye mom” I said hurrying out to avoid any further discussions with my mom. It’s not like I am running late or something but it’s just that I can’t wait to see my friends especially Marcello.

~ Shinning Stars Academy~
I got off my limo and starts heading into the school. Everyone were on their sport wear which fitted them well too. It is evident that almost everyone is excited. I entered the class. Not many people had arrived and my friends were not exempted. I do not relate with people that much else I would have easily mingled with those around.
” Hi” A girl in my class came to me. I was quite surprised.
” Huh.. hi?”
” Your sport wear looks good on you ” she complimented and my face lit up.
” Wow! Thanks!” I appreciated all smiles.
” You are also in yellow group ,same as mine” she said and my gaze went on her dress. She is in yellow house too. ” We come first most of the times and second few times. It will be nice to see how energetic you are” she continued.
” yea, sure” I said and smiled. I sighted Henry, a little disappointed that Marcello hadn’t arrived .
” Bye ” she said and left.
I went to my locker and kept my school bag. I went to my sit afterwards.
” Good morning” A not so thick but masculine voice greeted me. It was that of Henry.
” Morning. Hope your night was good…” I asked friendly. I turned to face him. Within the few days I had spent in this school. I have known Henry to be friendly, plain and caring. He acts weird sometimes which I do not know why but he is very friendly regardless.
” Oh .. wow . You are in the same house as mine” he said joyously.”
” Yeah .. I am. I heard we win most of the time ” I replied.
” If that’s true then I hope we would continue winning together and moreso your outfit looks …”
” Marcello” I called happily as I sighted him.
” The smiling girl, how are you this morning? And you buddy ,hope you are good ? ”
“Yea, we are” We chorused.
” Oh that marvelous. And your sports wear looks beautiful on you” Marcello complimented and I blushed a little. I did try to conceal my blush tho.
My eyes quickly landed on his wears and was very disappointed in what I saw. He was in red house. I smacked him on his back to express my disappointment.
” Ouch! That was painful ” He complained.
I hit him again .
” what could I have done this early morning Linda Franklin ” He questioned calling my full name for the first time.
” Thats because you are not in yellow house ” I shouted.
” But that’s not my fault.”
” whose fault is it then?” I questioned
” Oh no … I am never going to argue with a girl” Marcello expressed making a funny face and I laughed…
” I hope you guys would stop being dramatic honestly ” Henry chipped in
” Don’t mind Linda. Come on buddy ,let’s leave for the assembly. It’s almost time” he said dragging Henry along with him.
” I am coming with you…!” I yelled after them , tagging along hurriedly.
